Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY FAVORITE MSBELLE!!!!

Now tagless for your comfort.

Plei, when I had two weeks to go, I went on a series of business meetings in Cinci which required a lot of walking. As we were touring the P&G building, I got the pubic bone separation thing. DAMN that hurts. I swear I thought I was in labor. All the men in the group turned very pale and one ran to get the car. He drove like a bat out of hell to get us back to Columbus, his fists very tight on the wheel. I swear, that pain was worse than any contraction I had (well, almost).

As for nursing/maternity bras. I didn't find one I liked until I went in to see a lactation consultant (they fitted for bras there). Once I had one of those on, I threw the rest of mine out. I'd get the number for a LC and see where she recommends for nursing bras and getting fitted.

information libertarian

I didn't and don't have the large size issues with pregnancy/nursing bras, but I can say that once you are at a stable size, it is well worth it to buy a really well-fitting bra even if it costs a lot. Buy two and do a lot of laundry (you will be doing this anyway), and by the time they give out you'll be done with them.

I'm still up a cup size 16 months later (though still nursing), and I'm wearing my later pregnancy bras now.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Happy Birthday Msbelle!

Last night, I was asleep shortly after 10:00, and I just woke up about 20 minutes ago. Yay me!

Here is an ultracute (and 1.5 meg) picture of me feeding giraffes: [link]

Completely work-safe, of course. But I wanted to share it because I'm going to get on a plane in 3.5 hours and it would be a shame if it went down in flaming embers with me.

Very cute, Theodosia!

Have a good flight, and try not to do that flaming embers thing.

Connie, that is just delightful.

ION, the dog desperately wants to go out.

It is five degrees outside.

I cannot reconcile these two facts, but in the battle of wills, I also know when I'm beaten.
